Midnight Golf Launches College Success Program

Beginning with the Midnight Golf Program’s graduating class of 2018, we have expanded our support through the College Success Program. The three newly hired College Success Coaches support the 1,000+ MGP graduates who are enrolled in college this fall. They provide the students with proactive support to access on-campus resources, guidance from MGP staff, and financial assistance.

Upon high school graduation, MGP students are paired with a full-time dedicated College Success Coach, who serves as their primary point of contact. These dedicated and experienced coaches, with the support of the mentors, formally track each student. Students participating in the program receive regular communication & check-ins. These interactions are designed to gather information in support of measuring against our Student Success Factors.
